    摘要: A tungsten silicide film is deposited from WF.sub.6 and SiCl.sub.2 H.sub.2 onto a substrate so that the tungsten to silicon ratio is substantially uniform through the thickness of the WSi.sub.x film, and the WSi.sub.x film is substantially free of fluorine. The film can be deposited by a multi-stage process where the pressure in the chamber is varied, or by a high temperature, high pressure deposition process in a plasma cleaned deposition chamber. Preferably the SiCl.sub.2 H.sub.2 and the WF.sub.6 are mixed upstream of the deposition chamber. A seeding gas can be added to the process gases.

    摘要: A process and is described for forming a tungsten silicide layer on a semiconductor wafer in a deposition chamber which comprises mounting a wafer on a susceptor having a fixed outer diameter regardless of the diameter wafer thereon to be processed in said chamber, and flowing into a deposition chamber a mixture of gases, including dichlorosilane gas and a gaseous source of tungsten through a fixed gas inlet pattern formed in a fixed diameter inlet receptacle, whereby a constant gas flow will be maintained in the deposition chamber regardless of wafer diameter being processed to thereby provide uniform deposition conditions in the deposition chamber, independent of wafer diameter. In this manner the same showerhead is used for all diameters of wafers, and while the susceptor is changed with each size of wafer to be processed, to thereby provide a crown pattern on the susceptor corresponding to the diameter of the wafer being processed, the same outer diameter is used for each susceptor, thereby providing the same dimensioned gap in the same position between the outer edge of the susceptor and a baffle plate surrounding the susceptor, so that the gas flow patterns in the deposition chamber remain constant during deposition, regardless of wafer diameter.

    摘要: A clamping ring having a downwardly extending finger that mates with a pocket in the periphery of a susceptor for supporting a wafer in a chemical vapor deposition chamber, provides alignment of the clamping ring, the wafer and the susceptor. A source of inert gas connected to the pocket provides a positive pressure in the pocket that prevents reactive gas in the chamber from reaching the edge and backside of the wafer. A source of vacuum connected to the susceptor support surface ensures good contact between the wafer and the susceptor.The clamping ring also has a lip extending over the top surface of the wafer having a rear surface that has a negative angle with respect to the upper surface of the clamping ring, providing a knife edge seal to the wafer, reducing the area of contact between the clamping ring and the wafer and providing a reduced area of thermal contact between the clamping ring and the wafer.
